Top Camera Obscura Hotel Reviews

Vila Gale Tavira Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in town. Excellent breakfast and good facilities"

HI Tavira Pousada Juventude - Hostel

8/10 Good

"Good position in Tavira. Easy to find. Nice room and facilities. Good breakfast. Comfortable mattress"

Pousada Convento de Tavira - Historic Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My wife, and I stayed at the Pousada Convento de Tavira hotel from Sunday 6 Sept to Thursday 10 Sept 2026. We first visited the hotel in 2024 for coffee and decided we would like to stay there, when next in Portugal. VERDICT: This is a fabulous hotel which seamlessly integrates its historic heritage with modern comforts. There is plenty of space to relax, read a book and unwind on the comfortable sofas around the hotel, in the bar, or read beside the pool. The picturesque courtyard provides an additional level of privacy and tranquility in the centre of the hotel. Unfortunately, some architectural work was being undertaken during our stay which prevented its full use. The staff are excellent - Anna and her team on the reception desk are outstanding - and quickly resolved an issues we had. All staff are friendly, courteous, and responsive. The breakfast is first class; serving quality food to suit a myriad of tastes. The breakfast staff were attentive and even remembered what morning beverage I drank the day before! The hotel location is super convenient allowing easy access to the local town; replete with restaurants, coffee shops, ice cream venues, supermarket, and train station. An inexpensive ferry journey takes you to unspoilt beaches served by ample fish restaurants. Lots of places to walk to. Would Susan and I come back to the Pousada Convento de Tavira hotel? Yes! In a heartbeat! A fine hotel with excellent staff providing a first class customer service."

São Paulo Boutique Guest House

8/10 Good

"This is a beautiful inn. The public rooms are beautiful, the grounds are beautiful, breakfast was delicious! I would have given it five stars, but I found a member of the staff to be particularly cold!"

Authentic Tavira Hotel

8/10 Good

"Dans l’ensemble tout était bien mais la photo de la terrasse pour exemple est trompeuse… je croyais que cet établissement était proche de la mer ."

Palácio de Tavira, a Small Luxury Hotel of the World

10/10 Excellent

"What a great hotel, the location is perfect in Tavira. The hotel is immaculate. All the staff were fantastic, a special mention to the staff that served breakfast & diner. The breakfast is amazing & the evening dining is superb, they make you feel very welcome & there advice on wine is excellent. All together a great a dining experience."

Hotel Don Rodrigues

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff at the front desk were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast had so much to offer, very enjoyable, and sitting in the lounge area to relax or eat was really a nice option. The gated parking was worry free and the large grocery store within walking distance was convenient although you have to walk around the roundabout so I would only do that during daylight. Overall I would highly recommend the hotel to anyone. Diane from Canada"
